السياسة الدينية الفرنسية في الجزائر و دور الكتاتيب في التصدي لها (1830-1954 م)‎

الملخص EN

The French authorities have been implementing a planned policy since the beginning of the invasion of Algerian territory.

the reason was that the colonists aimed to Christianize Algerian people, frenchify them, eradicate their principles and destroy their constants, especially the Islamic religion and the Arabic language.

since traditional schools and Quran schools constitute the basis for building the Algerian identity, it is obvious that they are at the forefront of destructive authorities’ concerns.

these authorities tried also to disrupt traditional schools’ role in different ways.

in addition, this policy was the cause of the spread of ignorance and illiteracy in Algerian society, which consequently made it easy prey for European missionaries.

considering the role of Quran schools, the association of Algerian Muslim ulema has sought, since its foundation, to revive traditional schools and bring them back into action in order to be an impenetrable dam facing all colonial plans, especially the Christianization and the frenchification.
